COMPARE: Comparing FE and CAD Data
COMPARE: Comparing FE and CAD data
The COMPARE tool allows comparison of two sets of FE data or CAD geometry as defined by one or more shells, shell sets, shell parts or geometry surfaces.
|
The selected entities may occupy different points in space and have different orientations, but they must have roughly the same shape for the comparison to work. |
 To start the comparison, two sets of data must be specified. Minimum and maximum search distances may also be controlled. |
Potential applications include comparison of an FE mesh against the corresponding CAD geometry. This function may also be used to compare two sets of parts.Results are displayed as contours. Various drawing modes are available as in the case of the contact penetration checking function
